Anyone experiencing this?

flubber77

with x64 i do get some sound glitches, alots in fact. i can hear the water fall then the sound change to something completly different like coffin for a few sec then its back to waterfall. when sound is missing i do get a wierd noice scratchy sound.

I had sound glitches when I was playing on the 64 bit client earlier today. I stopped playing it because of problems with pink textures, and noticed when I was playing the 32 bit again the audio issues were gone. So it might just be something with the 64 bit.

I played all day on 32 biit and had many audio issues. audio was cutting in and out. sometimes all audio. sometimes just some abilities or siege noises.

OmniDo

I experience the same sound issues.
Gave up and defaulted back to the functional 32 bit client.

thezeroroomub17_ESO

I'm experiencing constant audio glitches, as described in this thread - especially when I'm near water, with the 64 bit client as well. PC on Win 8.1

GrimMauKin

I'm getting this too. There's no noticeable benefit from the 64 bit client so I might go back to the 32bit one.

ShadowscaleSithis

Yes, I have since start. I can barely hear anything on my left side or sometimes facing in a chat mode. I have to turn to try and hear with my right ear if an NPC starts talking just to be able to hear it lol

And I have this bug ...

I noticed a lot of static and a few missing textures in one dungeon. Windows 10 64bit client.

WeerW3ir

i have sound problems on 32 bit too. Also no voice as wearing a polymorph

Laggus

I went through a keep door and afterward all my skills made the sound of the door opening. This lasted until I relogged. 64bit client. .

Evergnar

yep, just tried x64 and it's riddled with bugs including sound glitches. Popping/crackling/static sounds and music sounds likes it's skipping/repeating. The graphic bugs are even worse though.

Lolssi

Yeah lots of sound issues with 64bit. At first they were minor inconvience but when that static started it became really annoying. Also saw some pink mounts.
Gonna propably go check The Division while they fix this.

sekou_trayvond

Yep, audio bugs here as well. Plus, hot pink textures on random things- but predominantly on crates and debris, although the half pink pirate ship was sweet.

Both of these glitches sprang up with 64 bit. World was fine with 32 bit.

Abeille

Yes, loud and and painful sound glitches.

They happen very often.

Shader_Shibes

Getting quite a few anomalies. Sound cuts out, weird hissing noises from time to time, sound getting higher/lower t name a few. That's on 32 bit.

Epona222

Yep same here, 64bit client. Wrong sounds playing, sometimes no sound, sometimes sound unbalanced between left and right sides, sometimes loud static.

Also as others have mentioned, textures failing to load, the pink wasps are pretty, but the time it was the Skyrim road texture made a wander through Windhelm quite headache-inducing!

starlizard70ub17_ESO

From what I'm reading on the forums, I'm afraid to even try the 64bit client. And my pc has the specs to run it well. The 32bit client is having audio problems also, along with freezing, crashing, etc.

Glaiceana

Yeah I had sound problems when I tested out the 64bit client last night. I have a shock enchantment on my Orc character's main weapon, and sometimes when it was drawn there was a loud hissing sound. Every time I tried to record it though I didn't catch it in time
There were also unsynced werewolf sounds.
None of it happening since in the 32bit client for me though.

Selstad

Hm, starting to wonder if they tested the 64 bit client well enough before releasing. I have these bugs as well on the audio side. Guess I have to go back to the 32 bit client until they decide to fix it. Shame

We're looking into these, everyone. If you are able to provide any additional specific examples, please do! It would be helpful to know what you're hearing, where you're hearing it, if there was any action associated with triggering the sound, and whether or not you're using the 64-bit client or 32-bit client. Thank you!

I indeed have them... I don't know if its an issue with playing (uneducated guess) more than 4 or 5 Audio files together. Also it might tie into the dialogue cancel when we skip the vendor dialogue. It happens for me often when I click an answer in dialogue without the file playing to its end. It remains stuck...

Also what might count in is that my Itunes runs in the back... For music.

I also experienced various sound files that didn't quite refresh correctly, or have their loop broken. But it has gotten better since the hotfix.

I run a Windows 10 PC
AMD FX4350 Quad Core
Nvidia GTX 960
8GB Ram

The most common issue for me is when there is about 3 full group (24*3) fighting at one time and all audio will disappear. This is on the 32 bit client.

As a follow-up, our Audio team is interested in seeing videos (with sound) of the Cyrodiil sound issues. If anyone is able to provide one, they'd be very grateful!

Some of them off the top of my head. I'm using the 64-bit client:

dragon frog (and from what I hear, other pets) make sounds that seem to be incredibly loud, way more than they should be

random white noise static pulses that last for about 1 second, roughly every 5-10 minutes.

sometimes the music track will just drop out entirely, only resuming when i enter a new area.

bowmanz607

As a follow up to my point above. The audio will start as normal when one or more of the raids wipe. I do not have to do anything special to get it to start again.

Yes saw that a few times too. But only for a couple of seconds until the game managed to load the clothes.

And yes to the audio glitches. Mostly with 64 bit client. Sometimes its just a loud noise and sometimes there is no audio at all.

Auf gut deutsch: setzen 6 und nochmal machen!

I could show you videos but there would be no sound... No sure how that will help. During last nights large scale fights on the Had server the sounds would just stop all together. And I mean nothing, not a squirrel squeak, not an intermittent sword swing or bash sound... Nothing. Once the battle die down, or I move out of the area of the concentrated fighting, or die and respawned, then the sound returned.

I also had the random noise loop. Waterfall, to chest opening, to odd creeking noise and then into a constant car alarm. This happened two nights ago and didn't return last night. Might have been aided by the hotfix patch yesterday but I am not certain.

Also I am running the 64-bit exclusively so I cannot comment on the 32 bit.

No related to Cyrodiil, but going into the Greenshade Magnus crafting station, there were all sorts of strange audio noises going on in there, having been to that crafting station numerous times, it was definitely not 'normal'... and this was the 64-bit client on Win7.
